THE VERDICT
Royole&amp;rsquo;s Moon successfully pulls off a serious home theater experience in a portable, wearable package.
Quick story: Back in the mid &amp;rsquo;90s, I was the editor of a gadget review magazine. As long as a product was geeky enough and ran on AC or batteries, it was fair game for a test. This led me to bring home a variety of doodads that had nothing to do with audio/video&amp;mdash; a self-cleaning litter box, a sports radar gun, et al. One day I walked in with what was claimed to be a &amp;ldquo;personal air conditioner,&amp;rdquo; basically a black beanbag neck wrap that had an imbedded metal cooling strip; the idea was that applying the band to your neck would keep you chilled in hot weather. When I tried it on for my wife, she walked by dismissively without even pausing. &amp;ldquo;That&amp;rsquo;s a good look for you,&amp;rdquo; she said.

THE VERDICT
Astell &amp;amp; Kern&amp;rsquo;s KANN is not only a subtly gorgeous-sounding performer loaded with features. It&amp;rsquo;s also a great value.
Astell &amp;amp; Kern&amp;rsquo;s KANN (along with the recently announced AK70 MK II) makes its debut at a time when the dedicated music player is looking more and more like the passenger pigeon. Apple has just killed the innovative, shape-shifting iPod nano and the puny iPod shuffle, leaving only the now unprecedentedly cheap iPod touch, basically an iPhone without the phone, at $199. With Apple uncharacteristically catering to the middle of the market (let&amp;rsquo;s not even contemplate the $20 nano knockoffs on Amazon), that leaves the high-resolution musicplayer carriage trade to companies like Astell &amp;amp; Kern, FiiO, and HiFiMan, as well as newly hi-res-conscious big brands like Sony, Onkyo, and Pioneer.

THE VERDICT
This second-generation Ultra HD Blu-ray player delivers exceptional performance and value, especially for heavy Netflix or Amazon users.
I&amp;rsquo;m in my 13th year of reviewing consumer electronics, and I&amp;rsquo;m continually amazed at the industry&amp;rsquo;s pace of innovation. In the span of about 20 years, we&amp;rsquo;ve gone from bulky, backbreaking CRT displays to flat-panel TVs that hang on the wall, as well as projectors that are smaller than the base of a vacuum cleaner&amp;mdash;all at prices that the middle class can easily afford.

THE VERDICT
Sony&amp;rsquo;s ultra-affordable Ultra HD Blu-ray player offers solid video performance, and it also plays SACDs and DVD-Audio discs.
Call it nostalgia, but the launch of an audio or video format strikes me as an opportunity to reflect on what came before it&amp;mdash;especially now, with the sun threatening to set on physical media. When the Blu-ray Disc first appeared a little more than a decade ago, Sony was among its main flagwavers. Not only that, but the company&amp;rsquo;s PlayStation 3 console was considered by many to be the top-performing player in the Blu-ray format&amp;rsquo;s primitive days. Samsung and Panasonic were quick to push out standalone Blu-ray players, but the folks at Sony took their sweet time bringing their own model to market. When the BDP-S1 did arrive, it was well received for its picture quality&amp;mdash;though it had design quirks, including an inability to play CDs.

THE VERDICT
Oppo&amp;rsquo;s first Ultra HD Blu-ray player has been eagerly anticipated by UHD enthusiasts everywhere. The wait was worth it.
We&amp;rsquo;re now into the second year of the Ultra HD Blu-ray era, but up to this past January, Samsung, Philips, and Panasonic pretty much had the UHD player market all to themselves. That month&amp;rsquo;s Consumer Electronics Show, however, saw the introduction of models from LG and Sony, together with new ones from Samsung and Panasonic.

THE VERDICT
The Sony TA-ZH1ES is beautifully designed and built, though it doesn&amp;rsquo;t quite bring the MDR-Z1R headphone to its full potential.
Not content with just launching a new flagship headphone in the MDR-Z1R, Sony simultaneously launched the TA-ZH1ES headphone amplifier/DAC; like the MDR-Z1R, it&amp;rsquo;s intended to be a statement of Sony&amp;rsquo;s best technology.

THE VERDICT
The HiFiMan SuperMini combines the sonics of a gentle top end and luscious mids with light weight, long battery life, and enough power to drive slightly less efficient headphones.
HiFiMan was founded in New York by Dr. Fang Bian. The company now operates from China but does not outsource either manufacturing or design. Headphones come from a factory in Dongguan. Music players come from another factory in Kunshan. R&amp;amp;D runs in Shanghai, software is developed in Shenzhen, and headquarters are in Tianjin. Unlike so many storied audio brands that have cut loose from their original motivation, 11-year-old HiFiMan continues to reflect the vision of Dr. Fang.

THE VERDICT
The Sony Walkman NW-ZX100HN delivers beautifully balanced and transparent sound in a not-too-bulky form factor with excellent ergonomics and the unique plus of built-in noise cancellation, but only for its proprietary earbuds.
With the iPod classic gone, smartphones in almost universal use, and streams elbowing out downloads, is the dedicated music player obsolete? Or could it possibly be a retro survivor that mocks its replacement, the way the resurging turntable mocks the CD player? With emerging specialists like Astell &amp;amp; Kern, FiiO, and Questyle being joined in the market by old-school manufacturers like Onkyo and Sony, there seems to be growing interest in building high-quality players that do a better job of delivering highresolution audio than a phone does.

THE VERDICT
Although short on some bells and whistles, the Questyle QP1R is a dedicated music player that offers four-figure sound and build quality at a three-figure price.
If you had chucked me into a time machine a decade ago, freed me today, then handed me the Questyle QP1R, naturally I&amp;rsquo;d mistake it for an iPod on steroids. With that clickwheel, it&amp;rsquo;s got to be an iPod, right? You&amp;rsquo;d have to explain to me that what Questyle calls the steering wheel isn&amp;rsquo;t identical to Apple&amp;rsquo;s clickwheel; here, the functions are divided differently among the wheel, its big central button, and the four vibrating touch-sensitive buttons around it.

The Astell &amp;amp; Kern AK Jr is the least expensive music player from the company that has defined the state of the art in pocketable audio.
Visit the Apple Website and scan the banner across the top: Mac, iPad, iPhone, Watch, TV, Music, Support. Where&amp;rsquo;s the iPod? You&amp;rsquo;ll have to hit Music and scroll down a bit for the link to the iPod page. There you&amp;rsquo;ll find the surviving touch, nano, and shuffle players, but no high-capacity hard-drive-based models or even the iconic click wheel. Apple (and to be fair, Apple isn&amp;rsquo;t alone) recognizes that most people now use phones for onthe-go listening.
